Once again, Brampton Library and
Toastmasters have partnered to help youth ages 14 to 18 develop their
communication and leadership skills so they can become leaders in
business, industry and their community.
Brampton Toastmasters Club #2347,
Dist. #86 is sponsoring this initiative, which promises to give interested
teens a chance to increase their self-confidence as they learn, make new
friends and have fun. As an added bonus, certificates will be issued at the
final session as part of a special graduation ceremony.
Each session is conducted as a
meeting, not a class, and everyone who takes part gets a Participant’s Notebook
to help them along the way. The group selects officers who preside over the
meetings, and remaining members are assigned other duties on a rotating basis,
so everyone is actively involved. Discussions take place at each meeting, and
participants also deliver short impromptu and prepared speeches while learning
to apply the principles of listening, thinking and speaking.
This exciting opportunity will take
place at Brampton Library for nine weeks, beginning Saturday, February 1 to
March 29, 2014. The sessions will be held at the Library’s Gore Meadows Branch,
10150 The Gore Road from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Space is limited to 24 teens. Youth interested
in this free offering should register
starting January 6, 2014 by visiting one of the Library locations or calling
the Library at (905) 793-4636.
